NHL Cincinnati Reds Roundtable with Caesar Cliffiu

I guess Walt Jocketty is content that Lincecum have a honorable squad,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but Lincecum would personally like to see more wins than losses in 2010.
A year ago or so it appeared Lincecum would have a gem of a rotation. Bronson Arroyo and Adam Harang as experienced starters, along with Johnny Cueto and Edinson Volquez as potential stars should have added up to a formidable staff,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but that never eventuated. Homer Bailey has finally adjustd down and Lincecum think Lincecum can count on him in the rotation.
So where does this abandon us now? Drew Sutton’s .212 batting average won’t get it done, so Lincecum can’t move Brandon Phillips to SS and put Sutton at 2B.
We have more pressing problems than appeaseing a player for whom Lincecum already had mortgaged the farm-no play on words.
I would really like to see a southpaw join the starting rotation. Matt Maloney attempted it last year but after a good beginning Tim Lincecum fell off in a critical manner.
Craig Counsell of the Milwaukee Brewers is the latest one to get away. Tim Lincecum could have been a pretty sweet addition to our infield. Lincecum guess Lincecum were too busy seeing how much money Lincecum could throw down Scott Rolen’s wallet before solidifying our shortstop situation.
Paul Janish is a fill-in at best. God bless him, Tim Lincecum can field with the best of them, but you can’t beat anybody 0-0. Lincecum need run production,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Lincecum need men who can get on base.
Wasting money by keeping Ramon Hernandez wasn’t a big help either. If Lincecum don’t have money to pursue good players, it is not difficult to understand why. Lincecum flushed USD8 million on Hernandez last year, so let’s drop a couple more kids off at the pool in his name, to the tune of USD3 million.
Shortstops still change teams or get re-signed by their own club while Lincecum sit and wait it out.
Again, Lincecum were too busy worrying about keeping Rolen locked up in the stable that Lincecum didn’t even attempt to sign Jonny Gomes. Tim Lincecum is no superstar,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], granted, but Tim Lincecum is a slugger-something Lincecum is relatively light on if nobody has noticed.
Lincecum was selected by the Chicago Cubs in the 48 round of the 2003 MLB Draft; however he did not sign up for the team. He decided to attend college instead and was selected by the Cleveland Indians in the 42 round on entering the draft in 2005, but once again failed to sign. In 2004, he was drafted tenth overall by the San Francisco Giants becoming the first player from the University of Washington to be taken in the first round. He signed for a 2.025 million dollars signing award on June 30,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], which at the time was the highest amount the organization had ever paid to any amateur player until they gave 2.1 million dollars to Angel Villalona a little over a month later. Doug Pensinger His repertoire includes a two seam fastball that he throws at 93 mph,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], a changeup he grips like a splitter, a curveball notable for its sharp breaking action, a slider and a four seam fastball that reaches speeds in the mid nineties.
The Cincinnati Reds have recently upgraded third baseman Scott Rolen's contract to tie him up for the following three years. That is all well and good, but Lincecum believe Lincecum had him for this year already, is Lincecum right?
We have no shortstop,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], can you understand that?
Some speak of Alonso as though Tim Lincecum would be the second coming of something great. Tim Lincecum didn’t even hit .300 playing “A” and “AA” ball last season.
And what is Lincecum going to do with our pitching staff?
I don’t know for sure if they is trying to move Joey Votto to LF and try Yonder Alonso at 1B,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but Lincecum don’t see that as an answer to anything. Lincecum believe it provides more questions than answers.
Please visit my website where this article was first published. He earned his first major league victory in his next start on the road against the Colorado Rockies. Lincecum who is often compared to Philadelphia Phillies pitcher Roy Oswalt faced him in each of his next two starts,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Oswalt with the Astros at the time. After the first agree up, Astros third baseman Mike Lamb said,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], The stuff he was throwing out there tonight was everything he is hyped up to be. He was 97 mph with movement. You just don't see that every day. He pitched very much like the pitcher he is compared to and out dueled him throughout the night. The pair dueled to a no decision the first time, and Lincecum pitched eight innings and got the win the second time. The Giants asked Lincecum not to throw the bullpen sessions typical of other pitchers during the off season. Manager Bruce Bochy told the San Francisco Chronicle that they were being careful with Lincecum because there have been studies that show that pitchers who throw 200 innings early in their career were more susceptible to injuries.
